Abstract

A voltage compensation apparatus for a photovoltaic system and a photovoltaic system are provided. The voltage compensation apparatus includes a current direction limiting circuit and a compensation power supply connected in series; or only includes a current direction limiting circuit. The current direction limiting circuit includes at least one limiting device configured to conduct a current in a unidirectional manner. The voltage compensation apparatus is connected between the output terminal of the converter and the ground. The photovoltaic system includes: a photovoltaic array, a converter, a transformer and the voltage compensation apparatus. An output terminal of the converter is connected with a primary side of the transformer, and an input terminal of the converter is connected with the photovoltaic array. The voltage compensation apparatus is configured to raise or lower a voltage at the output terminal of the converter.
